Since When Starving a Dog to Death is Called Art

[MoSpur]

I think its pretty clear that you seem to find a correlation between "art" and "right". As if giving something the tag of "work of art" carries with it some sort of validation or acceptance. Hence why you're willing to see it as art now that no harm has come to the dog, but were so unwilling to do so before, when calling it art would have meant accepting the killing of an innocent dog as something purposeful.

Not true. They were actually putting some creativity to this act.

The dog's life had no bearing on whether or not this was art.

Again, have to agree. The only difference that makes is how much of an asshole the artist is.

Or non-artist, as either way I don't see it being art. One act is de able, and the other is just tying a dog to a wall.

I find it an interesting exhibit either way. ed up, but interesting.

If the dog was treated well and fed, then its a different situation.

"NEVER MIND!"

and the other is just tying a dog to a wall.

Which makes people realize how hypocritical they can be............which would be considered art.

Seung-Hui Cho was going for a similar effect. What an artist.

Now I think it's an even bigger FAIL, oddly enough.

All this "I want to make a statement about starving dogs by pretending to have a starving dog tied to a wall" bull tells me is that this guy sucks at making "art" and his entire life could be put to better use by making me a Colon Clogger at Chipotle.

Seung-Hui Cho was going for a similar effect. What an artist.

And what effect was he going for that is similar?

[monosylab1k]

I'm gonna find a stray dog and tie him up tonight. I'll feed him and let him escape. This is to send a message about morons who think they are creating art by doing irrelevant bull . I'm an artist now.

All hail me, the artist.

You finding it interesting is interesting. So yeah, how can you find this interesting? Inquiring minds want to know.

The mere fact that he's evoked responses such as this prove he does not such at making art.

Making people realize how hypocritical they are, according to his own ed up idealogy. This "artist" decided to do it by tying up a dog, Cho did it by killing people at a college. I guess they're both artists tho.

Pretentious asshole.

[MoSpur]

I don't think its good art. I can see how he/she can think of this and call it art. I don't think its particularly good though.

[monosylab1k]

The mere fact that he's evoked responses such as this prove he does not such at making art.

I know he doesn't, because he isn't making art.

[monosylab1k]

Pretentious asshole.

For about 9 pages it has held quite a bit of interest

I find it interesting because he took an approach to a project that really gave people no choice but to examine themselves and their actions, and did it in a ed up manner.

[mrsmaalox]

No he is a at making art; but he's okay at making "statements".

How did Cho make people realize how hypocritical they were? You are really reaching here. And Cho was mentally ill.

Okay, smart ass. I wasn't asking you, but thanks.

[monosylab1k]

How did Cho make people realize how hypocritical they were?

How did this "artist" make anyone realize how hypocritical they are?

I could give a about his message, I either think he's a ty "artist" for thinking tying up a dog is art, or a sick for thinking torturing and killing a dog was art.
